The paper presents laboratory research of basic physical properties of barley seed which determine parameters vital for seed handling in harvest, primary and final processing, as well as in sowing. The study was focused on the breakage force and deformation of barley seed. The test were conducted on two varieties of winter barley: Novosadski 525 and Nonius. The significant differences in seed properties, which are the subject of this research, pertain to the following: shape and dimensions, roundness, volume, single seed surface area, moisture, bulk density and self-density, 1000 seed mass, and dependence of compression strength on the force.
